A single buggy, also known as a sleigh or a Sleigh-like carriage, is an all-wheeled, lightweight carriage that's usually pulled by ONE horse. It is frequently used by Amish people, and is also known as a sleigh. A single buggy is a popular choice for families because it allows for easy mobility for the entire family.

They typically weigh less than 6kg and fold up compactly that allows them to be carried easily in overhead compartments for luggage on flights. They are also easy to maneuver and are ideal for city travel. Many come with sunshade and raincover, which are worth investing in to keep your baby happy on any outing!

A jogger's buggy is large with BMX wheels and is made to exercise. It will have a strong suspension to take care of the bounces, bumps and other effects of off-road use. It can be difficult to control a jogger buggie since the front wheels may be able to rotate. Locking this wheel is essential when crossing roads or mounting kerbs.

Some single buggies are reversible that allows the seat to be positioned forwards or backwards (known as parent-facing). This is ideal for babies who get fussy in their car seats and prefer to look out at their parents. Other models are only forward-facing, so they're ideal for older children who don't want to be distracted.

There are also tandem buggies that are designed to carry two children of the same age side-by-side. This is a great option for families with twins or babies born close together however, they can be difficult steer, especially in narrow spaces. Some tandem buggies have recline mechanisms on each seat so that your child can lie flat while you are pushing them.

The purchase of a single buggy

A new buggy can be costly. The majority of pushchairs with newborn bassinets cost upwards of PS700, which can be a big ask for parents with limited incomes.

The reality is that, unless you live in a city with public transport available or have a massive car boot and spend your weekend on muddy parks, the majority of families purchase two buggies. One main sturdier buggy that can carry loads, cope with rough terrain, and possibly grow with the family, and a light travel buggy for holidays and restricted spaces, like on public transport or crowded streets.

We recommend purchasing one buggy that you like, and then selling it when your child gets up and you need to upgrade to a double. You won't be stuck with a gimmick that you don't want.

Double buggy: Purchase one

You have to think about a lot when buying a double buggy, from the cost to the type of reclined positions available. You will also want to consider whether you require an enormous shopping basket and what kind of suspension the buggy has. Think about the features you'd like to have on your buggy such as sunshades or rain covers.

There's a wide selection of double buggies on the market and the best one for you will depend on who will be using it and your budget restrictions. If you're expecting twins or a toddler and newborn, then you may need a pushchair that will be able to accommodate your expanding family. UPPAbaby's Vista V2 is a excellent example, since it comes with 30 different seating options for all age groups. It can be used as a single stroller from birth, and later converted into a side-by-side model as your children get older. It is also possible to use it with a third child if the Ride-Along Piggyback Board is added to make it a great option for families with multiple children.

Another great choice is the Mountain Buggy Duet V3.2. This is one the slimmest double buggies available and is as narrow as that of one buggy.

The seats are cushioned, and the straps for harnesses are thick and comfortable for your children to sit in.
